Frey Gets Celebrity Attorney

The Fresno woman who admitted having a relationship with Scott Peterson says she´s prepared to testify at his murder trial. Peterson is charged with killing his pregnant wife, Laci, and their unborn child. Celebrity attorney Gloria Allred announced yesterday she is representing Amber Frey.

Frey also says she´s been hounded by news media and tabloids offering her money for her story ever since she came forward about a month after Laci Peterson disappeared. As a result, she says, she hired Allred to fend off the offers, which she does not intend to accept, and to represent her as a witness. Frey has said she did not know Peterson was married when she met him in November.

Scott Peterson was arrested last month after the bodies of his wife and baby washed ashore on the Richmond shoreline.
